Ben Alder from Corrour Station

Heres some photos and videos from a Recent 3 day trip to Ben Alder with Peter Dixon and Oscar (@munro277) starting and finishing at Corrour Station and staying 1 night in Ben Alder Bothy

First Look Bear Paw Wilderness Designs Cuben Lair

Ive been after a small cuben shelter for a while now but I couldn't make my mind up which one too choose,I narrowed it down to two,The Six Moons Designs Deschutes or the Bear Paw Wilderness Designs Lair,In the end cost made my decision,the Lair was quite a bit cheaper.I found Bear Paw designs a pleasure to deal with,quick response by email and quick delivery times.When it arrived I fitted the guys and pitched it in the garden the quality seemed very good and the weight was excellent coming in at 242grams with guys and stuff sack.( I had read and heard mixed reports about the quality of their products but mine seems fine)So last weekend (6/06/15) it got its first outing,with big winds forcast I was a little concerned about using it.but it was fine no problems at all.Ive put a pitching video and a fews photos below,and I'll update after more use.

The Lair pitched Next to A MLD Duomid

Just a quick update,Ive now used it for 5 nights and Im really liking this shelter its quick and easy too pitch,also my last night in it I was pitched just off Rossett Pike and the weather came in bad heavy rain and winds upto 40mph.the shelter didn't move at all.Also I've used with my MLD inner which fits perfect,I've put a photo below.

Strathfarrar Munros

Some photos and a video from the Strathfarrar Munros ,we managed to get a lift so we had no road walking and helped with the time because it was a long day,cars are only aloud in from 9am to 7pm in May and a limit to 25 cars a day.It is a stunning place.

The North Mullardoch Munros

This trip had been planned for a while and was going too be a 3 night backpack but the forecast was a rubbish so we turned it in to too 2 day walks,Lucky for us Peters parents were staying at Liatrie cottage near Loch Mullardoch and were kind enough too let us stay for 3 nights,so our fist walk of the trip was the 3 Munros on the north of the loch,the boat wasn't running so we had too walk all of it from east to west then the shore path back to the dam it ended up a 20mile 12 hour day.
